In the article "How John McCain will End the War", it becomes clear that his choice of policies are not well-thought out and contradictory. McCain is both acting on his own ideology and advocating policies that he thinks will appeal to his constituency. Whether they make any sense seems to be irrelevant.
For example, his claim that American troops can remain in Iraq in a "peaceful Korea-like presence" exposes the shallowness of his analysis of reality in Iraq. If McCain believes that at some point the Iraqi people will suddenly welcome our presence or that the insurgency will be defeated, then he is living in Bizzaro World.
McCain's believe that he can balance the budget in his first term in office through the savings in winning the war in Afghanistan and Iraq is pure Alice in Wonderland. First of all, one of his advisors should inform him that it's not a war but a hostile occupation. In both countries, the people have been completely alienated and want American occupying forces to leave. That tends to happen when you kill innocent people and distabilize the country.
The big question is do you want a president who concocts policies without thinking them through carefully and seeking a wide range of opinions? Wait a minute. That reminds me of another president.
